The May 14 letter, "GOP is abusing our scared right to vote," could easily come from the White House. There is a history with the Democratic leadership to negativily change our voting process. Please read "Setting the Record Straight: American History in Black & White" by David Barton. The facts in this book have been omitted from history for years.

Just about anyone can get a driver's license or an ID and now they can vote. Who is pushing for illegal immigrants to get driver's licenses?

The writer of the letter has not listed one example of the Republicans committing voter fraud or voter registration fraud. I'm sure there has been some, but look at the history of the Democratic leadership: poll taxes, killing people so they couldn't vote, creating the KKK to stop Black Americans from voting and living as Americans.

The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill was stopped by the Democratic leadership. This is all in David Barton's book. The Democrats want quantity, not quality, in voting. Remember President Obama saying we have to work from the bottom up. Well, that's where the most votes are. There are hundreds if not thousands of court cases against these Democratic groups - MoveOn.Org and ACORN - because of voting irregularities.
